The Heritage Pontoon at Port Vauban
27 March 2026
At the heart of Port Vauban, the Heritage Dock showcases maritime history and traditional know-how through a curated selection of emblematic vessels.
Located on pontoon B2, this area accommodates boats up to 10.99 meters, selected for their heritage value and, in most cases, awarded the “Bateau d’Intérêt Patrimonial” label. Classic yachts, Mediterranean pointus and restored traditional boats create a true open-air floating museum.
Designed as a living space, the Heritage Dock contributes to the port’s dynamic atmosphere. The vessels moored here reflect a rich maritime legacy and help keep the spirit of yachting alive through present-day uses and exchanges.
This initiative reflects Port Vauban’s commitment to preserving, promoting and passing on a unique maritime heritage.
